If you support it, do you support it because you think he's right (and every study on it is wrong) about the harm? I addressed state rights in a post previously today. I've seen studies on both sides arguing about it's harmful or benign long term effects, brought to me by friends and acquaintances that feel much more strongly, one way or another, about the issue than I do. Since the Justice Department are not legislators, he is duty bound on the CSA & related court cases. | ||

President Donald Trump blamed former President Barack Obama on Tuesday for "weakness" that he said led to a reprehensible chemical weapons attack by Syria's government, while his secretary of state said Russia and Iran bore moral responsible for the deaths. In a series of strongly worded statements, Trump's administration sought to convey a forceful response to the attack in Syria's rebel-held northern Idlib. Trump said the attack against innocent people mustn't be "ignored by the civilized world." "These heinous actions by the Bashar al-Assad regime are a consequence of the past administration's weakness and irresolution," Trump said, in a reference to Obama's failure to strike in 2013 after saying a chemical attack by Assad would cross a U.S. red line. Source This coming from a president who is not now proposing to establish a red line, and who wants to keep Assad in power. | ||

According to K. Olbermann (Link), the accusations are already facts...but I'd take it with a grain of salt, like anything else Olbermann puts out there.  | ||

CAIRO (Reuters) - Islamic State said on Tuesday the United States was drowning and "being run by an idiot". In the first official remarks by the group referring to President Donald Trump since he took office, spokesman Abi al-Hassan al-Muhajer said: "America you have drowned and there is no savior, and you have become prey for the soldiers of the caliphate in every part of the earth, you are bankrupt and the signs of your demise are evident to every eye." "... There is no more evidence than the fact that you are being run by an idiot who does not know what Syria or Iraq or Islam is," he said in a recording released on Tuesday on messaging network Telegram. Trump has made defeating Islamic State a priority of his presidency. Source | ||

Lol cite what you're talking about and its applicability, I'm lost. He's decided many times to take the writing over his personal views, going so far as to state that you're likely a bad judge if you agree with the results of all the judgements you've written. Originalism & Textualism are his claims to fame. | ||
